When Jason and I attend conferences like Search Engine Strategies and BlogWorld Expo - we don't just collect trade show shwag and hand out business cards (or speak on panels, in Jason's case), we also love to interview retailers like Ryan Douglas from PlumberSurplus, ecommerce vendors like Jay Schaffer from PowerReviews, and acclaimed authors like Avinash Kaushik and Bryan Eisenberg.
Sometimes we get in front of the camera for interviews - like with next week's Solutions Stars Video Conference presented by Network Solutions. The live video conference will coach small business owners and entrepreneurs on how the Internet can benefit their business.
On Wednesday, October 29th from 10am PST / 1pm EST to 12:30pm PST / 3:30 EST you can tune in to us and a host of Internet experts, including:
